Happy Holidays from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
The decorations are up, the merchandise is on shelves, and new food is coming! But what else is going on in Hollywood Studios? Let’s take a look.
Tropical Storm Nicole (which hit Florida as a Category 1 hurricane before weakening into a tropical storm once again) has mostly passed through Central Florida, although wind and rain are still happening in certain areas.
Disney World closed early on November 9th for the storm and reopened its theme parks in a late, phased reopening process the next day. The Orlando International Airport also closed, but now they’ve announced when the airport will resume commercial operations. [Read more…]
The Festival of Holidays at Disney California Adventure runs from November 11th, 2022 through January 8th, 2023, but it just so happens that some food booths opened EARLY!
Of course, we had to check them after reading about all those delicious eats coming to the festival! We hope you’re feeling adventurous because we’re checking out a booth known for its “fun fusions of seasonal favorites” — so come with us to Merry Mashups!
Did you know the holidays have arrived in Disneyland? There’s snow on Sleeping Beauty Castle, which means it’s officially time to get festive!
We visited the Festival of Holidays at Disney California Adventure to try out some snacks recently (this festival officially opens on November 11th, but some booths opened early!). And you can find all kinds of holiday merchandise at the gift shops. If you’re a Magic Key holder, there’s even MORE to enjoy at Disneyland this time of year. [Read more…]
If you’ll be traveling to the Orlando area during hurricane season, it’s critical that you know what to expect and how to prepare.
Hurricane season generally takes place from June 1st through November 30th. In 2022, the season brought a large amount of flooding to Orlando through Hurricane Ian, and once again impacted the Orlando area with Tropical Storm Nicole. One key thing that can be impacted by storms is the Orlando International Airport. We’ve seen the airport CLOSE due to recent storms, but what exactly does this spot do to prepare for bad weather? We’ve got an inside look!
DON’T PANIC!
If you’re in the situation where you really want to go to Disney World, but you’ve only got two days to get it all done…don’t freak out yet. It may seem like a daunting task (because there’s SO much to do across the property!), but a short vacation is completely doable. That’s why we’re sharing our tips for how to have a successful trip in just two days!
It’s officially the holiday season in Disneyland — we know because the holiday decorations are up and there is almost nothing but holiday merchandise in the shops!
We’ve also seen “it’s a small world” with its holiday overlay. But the most important event of the holidays, the Festival of Holidays, has arrived in Disney California Adventure (the food booths opened early!) and we’re ready to EAT some holiday snacks. So let’s head on over to a food booth to see what’s shaking!
Festival of Holidays is BACK at Disney California Adventure in Disneyland Resort. The party officially starts on November 11th (and runs through January 8th, 2023), but some of the food booths opened EARLY this year, so of course, we were there to try out the new eats.
We’ve already tried out some curry mac ‘n’ cheese as well as a new chocolate bourbon-flavored tart. Now, it’s on to a booth that’s all about SLIDERS! [Read more…]
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is one of Disney World’s most popular events of the year — and for good reason!
We were at the very first party of the season taking in all the entertainment, eating all the snacks, and having a jolly old time. The party has been sold out on several nights for quite a while, but now it looks like there are still tickets available for one previously sold-out night — tonight!
If you’ve ever sailed on Disney Cruise Line, there’s a high likelihood that you’ve visited Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island.
The little paradise is teeming with fun activities, from snorkeling to banana boat rides to bike rentals and more. There are multiple beaches with swimming and lounge chairs, as well as play areas for the kids and restaurants to enjoy a seaside bite. But before there was Castaway Cay, there was another island…one that FAILED.
